CULTURAL BOOKLETS 
by 
WAYSIDE GARDENS 
Each 25c 
For the convenience of our customers we have prepared 
three booklets entitled as follows: ‘Cultural Instructions for 
Roses,’ “‘Cultural Instructions for Lilies,’’ ‘’Cultural Instruc- 
tions for Hardy Perennials and Alpine Plants.’’ These booklets 
may be had for 25c each. You will find them very helpful. 
They are fully illustrated and full of facts, precisely, as well 
as concisely, given. 
Chrysanthemum Haximum 
SHASTA DAISY 
Hardy perennials of easy culture, and especially noteworthy 
for their freedom in flowering. There are two distinct types of 
this genus. One is the Shasta Daisy, which bears large, white 
flowers on long stems, and is therefore, invaluable for cutting, 
and the other is the Leucanthemum, the Daisy of our meadows. 
Culture. The Shasta Daisies require a deep, rich soil. They must 
have a sunny position. They should be planted 1 foot apart. 
It is advisable to lift and divide the root stocks every alternate 
year, then the plants will be more compact in growth and also 
yield much finer flowers than if left undisturbed. 
Double Shasta Daisy, Mount Shasta 
Chrysanthemum Maximum, Mark Riegel 
Alaska Each 75c, Three $1.80, Doz. $5.65, 100 $28.00 
Handsome plant, with large, glistening white blossoms in June and July. 
Mark Riegel Each $1.25, Three $3.05, Doz. $9.50 
With the introduction of Mark Riegel Daisy, we move another step for- 
ward. First of all, its flowers have a distinct form. The broad 
glistening white petals which overlap, come in a double row, are long 
and curve slightly at the tips. The center of the flower is very small 
and soft canary-yellow. Stems are thin and rigid and about 2 to 3 feet 
long. As many as 15 to 20 flowers to a plant at one time. Flowers 
frequently measure 4 to 5 inches across, and will last longer than any 
other Daisy we have ever grown. 
The plants are compact, forming a tight neat clump with long orna- 
mental dark green foliage. It is the hardiest of the new Daisies and we 
consider it tops in every respect. 
Majestic Each $1.00, Three $2.55, Doz. $7.25 
We are more than pleased by the many words of praise from our many 
customers who have grown it. It is a hardy resistant grower, withstand- 
ing unfavorable conditions. Its immense white flowers are real beauties, 
5 to 6 inches in diameter with a small yellow center. Has a double row 
of straight and overlapping petals making the flowers full and compact, 
giving it great value in floral designs and bouquets. The petals are very 
stiff with no drooping. Has 28 to 30-inch straight stems. To sum up its 
good plants: It has wonderful large flowers; straight, long stems for cut- 
ting; is a healthy, strong, vigorous grower; blooms medium early. 
Double Shasta Daisy 
Aglaya Each $1.10, Three $2.75, Doz. $7.50 
A splendid, large, double-flowered Shasta Daisy. It is a sturdy grower 
and perfectly hardy. The flowers are double and have fringed petals. 
After its main early crop of blooms, it continues to produce flowers 
practically throughout the entire season. 
Mount Shasta Each 95c, Three $2.35, Doz. $7.00 
The pure white, fully double flowers have a high crested center and 
average four inches across or more. A double row of overlapping guard 
petals enhances the beauty of this fine double Daisy. The flowers come 
singly on stiff, 24-inch stems from spring until frost. Especially fine for 
cutting. Mount Shasta in our opinion is a top notch plant, a healthy, 
vigorous grower and a great improvement over Esther Reed, which we 
have discontinued. 
Wirral Pride Each $1.10, Three $2.75, Doz. $7.50 
A fine, vigorously growing and very profusely flowering Shasta Daisy 
from England. Flowers are usually 3 to 4 inches in diameter, heavily 
crested with short white petals in the center which produce a fine 
double effect. It has given excellent results here in Mentor and we 
recommend it without reservation.
